Cutie Strawberry Rolls

Few days ago, my aunt (舅母) sent me a link bout this cute strawberry roll, once I opened it, my reaction was...WAH!!! SO CUTE!! While I was planning to try it out, my aunt and my youngest sishave posted theirs..haha! Their work was so fine and nice..:) So without any delay, I did mine this morning!This was from a blogger in Taiwan, and of course everything was written in Mandarin. You can have a look at hers here.

Not much changes have been made here, I used some pandan paste for the strawberries leaves instead..;p And why is my rolls got holes ha? Maybe I've folded it too much..:(

See, this is how it looks after bake...so cute isn't it...haha! Anyway I think I should post the recipe here which I'll translate it to English for my own reference.

Egg yolk Batter:

6 egg yolks

20g sugar

60g fresh milk

45g cornoil (original called for salad oil)

100g cake flour (original called for low gluten flour)

15g cornflour

Egg Whites:

6 egg whites (original called for 5.5 egg whites)

70g sugar

Ingredients for little strawberries:

20g egg whites

10g sugar

few drops strawberry paste or red colouring

** some cocoa powder diluted in some water (brown color)

** some pandan paste (green color~leaves)

Fillings:

Some whipped cream and some halved fresh strawberries.

Method:

~ First, preheat the oven at 180'C. Then lightly whisk the egg yolks together with 20g sugar, then add in fresh milk and coinoil and mix well.

This is so so cute lah! Die die must try it, hahaha! But I just finished my strawberries making a new bread recipe ( you'll love it, post soon), maybe use some other flavor, heehee! Btw, I love this gal's blog (originator of this recipe), been awhile since I last visit. Thanks for this super sweet idea friend!!

Hi Reese, Thanks for sharing this recipe :) I made this today and the result is good except that my sponge cake got "wrinkle" after baking(the side with paper...and when I was peeling off the baking paper, its rather sticky. Therefore, the outlook of my swissroll is not as smooth as yours. Did u grease the baking paper before piping the strawberries on it? I also noticed yours do not have creases, any tips on this?

Hi cyndi,I used a non-stick parchment paper and I do not grease the paper. Greasing the paper may cause the swissroll go dense and may not rise if too oily. Did u remove the paper once took out from the oven? The paper have to be remove once the roll has been taken out from the oven (while it's still hot) . Then only leave to cool.Hope you can get the right texture next time!Cheers!!
